Hey dog if the big companies have nothing to do with fixing the prices then explain this to me. Back in the late 70's when my brothers private owned station could not buy any gas, he was forced to close his doors. ...Due to lack of gasoline for sale to private owners..the little guy. Boron at that time bought his station from him and used his tanks to store their gasoline..yes filled them all up with excess gasoline. ... All this while we were sitting in a line because of a gasoline shortage????????..They closed every little guy around here. Now the last private owned station just closed this fall. It had came up for sale and the person that was leasing it at the time could not buy it. He wanted to but they demanded a Million dollar tank change. (just did that when he took over about 5 yrs ago) also demanded he post a million dollar fee of some sort to cover any future problems he might have and all this on top of the asking price of property. A large company now owns the property. The little guy moved out....is still closed.
